FAQs

Is this skid plate suitable for general trail riding?

Yes, this skid plate is designed for off-road use, including motocross and enduro riding, which encompasses general trail riding with potential obstacles.

How does the plastic protection compare to aluminum?

Plastic offers excellent impact absorption and is lighter. While aluminum is harder, plastic is less prone to bending and can sometimes absorb impacts more effectively without transferring as much shock to the frame. It's also less likely to snag on obstacles.

What tools are needed for installation?

Typically, you will need a standard metric socket set or wrench set for installation. Refer to the included instructions for specific tool requirements.

Will this skid plate fit my 2021 Honda CRF450R?

No, this specific skid plate is designed for the 2017-2020 model years. Ensure you purchase the correct version for your motorcycle's year.

Can I wash my bike with the skid plate installed?

Yes, you can wash your motorcycle with the skid plate installed. Just use standard cleaning methods and avoid high-pressure washing directly onto the plastic for extended periods.

Does the red color fade over time?

Like most colored plastics exposed to sunlight and elements, some fading may occur over extended periods. However, the plastic material itself remains protective.

Troubleshooting

Skid plate does not fit correctly

Verify that your motorcycle is the exact model (CRF450R or CRF450RX) and year (2017-2020) specified for this skid plate. Ensure no other aftermarket parts are interfering with the fitment.

Mounting hardware is missing

Contact the retailer or Acerbis customer support with your proof of purchase to request replacement hardware.

Plastic appears to be cracking after impact

Inspect the area carefully. Minor surface stress marks might appear. However, if a significant crack forms, the skid plate should be replaced to ensure continued protection.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides excellent protection against impacts for the engine sump.
  • Constructed from durable, impact-resistant plastic.
  • Lighter weight compared to aluminum skid plates.
  • Designed for a precise fit on specific Honda models.
  • Includes all necessary mounting hardware for easy installation.

Cons

  • Plastic may be susceptible to scratches over time with heavy use.
  • May not offer the same extreme rigidity as a thick aluminum plate in all scenarios.

  • Installation might require basic mechanical knowledge.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This skid plate is designed specifically for the Honda CRF450R and Honda CRF450RX models manufactured between 2017 and 2020. Always double-check your motorcycle's year and model before purchasing.

Setup: The skid plate includes a complete mount kit. Installation typically involves bolting the plate to existing frame points and engine mounts. Ensure all hardware is securely tightened but do not overtighten, which could damage plastic components.

Care: Clean the skid plate after each ride using a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or high-pressure washers directly on the plastic, as this can degrade the material over time. Inspect the skid plate regularly for cracks or significant wear, and replace it if compromised to maintain protection.
